摘要
Purpose:The purpose of this literature review is to investigate the effectiveness of transformational school leadership(TSL)in Chinese K-12 settings between 2010 and 2019.The main objective is to provide a comprehensive understanding of TSL research in China and identify the possible future research directions.Design/Approach/Methods:Vote counting method and narrative synthesis were applied in this review.Findings:This review found the majority of the studies were quantitative,which indicates that qualitative and mixed-method studies should be encouraged.This review also identified 12 major outcome variables,including 9 teacher-level variables,2 school-level variables,and 1 student-level variable.Additionally,the effects of transformational leadership on these outcome variables were uniformly significant,including both direct and indirect effects.Future studies should expand the scope of school-level and student-level outcome variables,but particularly student-level outcome variables.Originality/Value:This is the first systematic review on the effectiveness of TSL research in China,which included both English and Chinese studies.
